EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Ono no Komachi Praying for Rain (Amagoi), from the series 'The Seven Fashionable Aspects of Komachi'" captures a moment of profound beauty and spirituality. Created by Suzuki Harunobu in the early 1760s, this exquisite piece showcases the artist's mastery of color woodblock printing. In this scene, we see Ono no Komachi, a renowned Japanese poet from the ninth century, fervently praying for rain. Dressed in vibrant orange clothing and holding a parasol to shield herself from the elements, she stands gracefully amidst a grey backdrop. The delicate details and intricate patterns on her attire reflect the fashion trends of Edo period Japan. Harunobu skillfully portrays not only Ono no Komachi's physical appearance but also her inner devotion through his artistry. The serene expression on her face conveys her deep connection with nature and religious beliefs. This print is part of a larger series called "The Seven Fashionable Aspects of Komachi" which explores different facets of Ono no Komachi's life and legacy as one of Japan's six immortal poets. Through these prints, Harunobu invites us to delve into both literature and visual arts, offering an immersive experience that transcends time. Displayed at the Art Institute Chicago, this artwork serves as a testament to Suzuki Harunobu's contribution to Japanese artistic heritage. It reminds us of the power that art holds in capturing moments frozen in time while evoking emotions that resonate across centuries.
